NBA Doubleheaders
[edit]I remember as late as the early 1960s, the National Basketball Association teams used to advertise "double headers." This was accomplished via teams trading home games for neutral site games. E.g., before a Detroit--New York game as Madison Square Garden, there'd be a Cincinnati-Philadelphia game on the same court for the same admission. If this was a Philadelphia Warriors home game shifted to NY, then the Knicks owed Philly a game, and so would play some other team before a Warriors home game as a double header.
Somewhere along the way, teams decided that they couldn't afford to give away two for the price of one. WHPratt (talk) 17:25, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
